United, one of the largest airlines in the United States. He says he wants to grow more routes in Africa, stressing that one of his desires is to add African cities as part of his growth plan.
United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby told Aviation Metric in New York last week. New United Polaris Studio Suites, To provide travelers with a new travel experience with B787-9 aircraft, he said. “We are currently the largest US airline flying to Africa. We are flying to many destinations. We are growing and we are planning to grow and add cities.”
Airlines are expanding their presence in Africa with increasing frequency to new routes and existing destinations.
In 2025, United will be offering Africa the largest timeline ever, starting May 23, with new services to Dakar in Senegal and increased services to Accra in Ghana and Lagos in Nigeria. They also highlighted plans to launch direct flights from New York to Marrakech, Morocco, and open the continent to oversee flight services from the United States.
He said the slow pace of aircraft delivery by Boeing has hampered the slow pace of expansion.
He said, “It would have been even bigger today, but Boeing is a bit late in delivering aircraft or has already added some of those routes, so I'm excited about Africa. We've leaned heavily towards it during the pandemic, and it's doing well and continuing to grow.”
“We are an important link, especially between Newark and Washington, DC. It's not just commercial air services. It's about connecting people, integrating the world, and those links are important to the future of Africa, engaging Americans and connecting them to the continent.”
He revealed that airlines have been in danger since last week that they have Wi-Fi on all aircraft. and The first commercial flight with StarLink on either flight.
“Wi-Fi, the great news is getting the best Wi-Fi this week. This week, the first commercial flight with Starlink, a large US airline, will come. It will eventually replace the entire fleet. It's free. It's free today. It's free, everyone rides, that won't work for anyone.”
“So, put on Starlink and get it as fast as possible. They're way faster than any other vendor they've ever dealt with or the other partners they've dealt with.
Kirby praised President Donald Trump for praise for his goal in regaining what he described as a high-quality job in the United States. The kind of job he realized United had created.
“One of the few companies that create the kind of jobs that can earn six figures can help families, buy homes and send their children to college, even if they have a high school education.
“But I say the goal is praiseworthy. Many of us in this country share the goal of creating that kind of career for people, and I said the goal is praiseworthy.
“We're not yet a new normal, meaning we saw what happened this week. Let's all take a breath and wait until we reach the new normal and see where all of that kind is.
